Fresh Corn and Avocado Salad

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    3 ears fresh sweet corn, husked (or 3 cups frozen, thawed)
    1/2 cup red onion, diced
    1 small avocado, diced
    juice of 1/2 lime
    1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
    1/2 teaspoon sea salt
    freshly ground pepper to taste

Directions:

1) After husking corn, pull out as many corn silks as possible.

2) Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Serve immediately or allow to marinate. This salad is even better the next day!  Serve as a side, with tortilla chips, or as a topping for tacos.

Source of recipe: What better time to share this simple salad recipe then when the farmer’s markets, roadside stands, and grocery stores (if you must!), are brimming with tender ears of sweet corn.  I created this recipe last year after learning from a local farmer that you can eat sweet corn raw without it ever touching a grill or a pot of boiling water.  I was able to convert many naysayers last summer, and now it’s time for me to make a believer out of you!

Makes: 4-6 servings, Preparation time: 5 minutes

I whipped this up in 15 minutes (with frozen corn) and took it to work. This was a huge hit for sure! My co workers ate the entire bowl!! All five of them requested the recipe. I can't imagine how good this would taste with fresh corn...I'll have to try that next time I make it.

This was great - I doubled the avocado, lime juice, and added cilantro.

So good! I had no idea you could eat corn raw until I found this recipe! This salad is delicious and only took a few minutes to throw together.

This was delish!  I added half a chopped cucumber and a splash of extra virgin olive oil.  Using the fresh husked corn as suggested made all the difference.  It was even better day 2 - will make again and again! Smiley

I thought this was ok... seemed like it was missing something... i think it would have been better with fresh corn (i used frozen) because i think some crunch would help... maybe some extra avocado would be good too... i dunno

I didn't have any red onions or fresh basil on hand so I added cucumbers and tomatoes instead along with fresh cilantro. Delicious!
